Professional Teeth Whitening in Beverly Hills and Northridge

A brighter smile can make a significant difference in how you look and feel. At Beverly Wilshire Dental Group, Dr. Mehryar Ebrahimi provides professional teeth whitening treatments for patients in Beverly Hills and Northridge, CA. Whether you prefer fast in-office results or the flexibility of a take-home kit, we offer safe, effective whitening options tailored to your smile and your schedule.

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?

Over-the-counter whitening strips and toothpastes can produce modest results, but they rarely match the strength or consistency of professional-grade treatment. Professional whitening uses higher-concentration bleaching agents applied under controlled conditions — which means faster results, more even coverage, and a lower risk of gum irritation when done correctly.

Patients choose professional whitening at Beverly Wilshire Dental Group because:

• Results are visible after a single appointment
• Treatment is customized to your tooth shade and sensitivity level
• Dr. Ebrahimi evaluates your teeth beforehand to ensure whitening is appropriate for you
• Take-home trays are custom-fitted — not one-size-fits-all

In-Office vs. Take-Home Whitening

How Long Does Teeth Whitening Last?

Results vary depending on your diet, oral hygiene habits, and whether you use tobacco. In general, professional whitening results can last anywhere from six months to two years. Patients who avoid heavily pigmented foods and beverages — such as coffee, red wine, and dark teas — and who maintain regular professional cleanings tend to enjoy longer-lasting results.

Periodic touch-up treatments with your take-home trays can help extend and maintain your results over time.

Is Teeth Whitening Safe?

Yes. Professional teeth whitening performed or supervised by a dentist is considered safe for most patients. Some people experience temporary tooth sensitivity or mild gum irritation during or after treatment. These effects are typically short-lived and resolve within a day or two.

Dr. Ebrahimi evaluates your oral health before recommending whitening to ensure it is appropriate for you. Patients with untreated cavities, gum disease, or certain types of restorations may need to address those issues before whitening.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening works best on natural tooth enamel. It is most effective for patients with:

• Yellow or brownish staining from coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco
• General age-related discoloration
• Surface staining that has not responded well to whitening toothpaste

Whitening is less effective on crowns, veneers, or bonded restorations — these materials do not bleach. If whitening alone will not achieve your goals, Dr. Ebrahimi can discuss alternatives such as porcelain veneers or dental bonding during your consultation.

Teeth Whitening Before a Special Event

Many of our Beverly Hills and Northridge patients schedule whitening ahead of weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, reunions, or professional headshots. If you have an upcoming event, we recommend scheduling your whitening appointment at least two weeks in advance to allow time for any sensitivity to settle and for touch-ups if needed.

Teeth Whitening Cost in Beverly Hills and Northridge

The cost of professional teeth whitening varies depending on the type of treatment and your individual needs. We encourage you to schedule a consultation so that Dr. Ebrahimi can evaluate your teeth and provide an accurate estimate.
